Green fruit, tomato and banana on tasting
Nose
An intense green olive fruitiness, with hints of tomato, apple, banana and freshly cut grass.
Palate
Bitterness and pepperiness balance each other elegantly, with neither dominating.
Finish
Clean and green, with the freshness of grass and apple.
Melgarejo Picual shows how the variety can be intense and refined at the same time. The deep green colour and clean aroma on opening the bottle announce an olive picked with care.
It is a Picual for those who already know the variety and want to go further, and also for those who prefer to start with a small format.
Pegalajar, at the gates of Sierra Mágina
Pegalajar is a Jaén village in the Sierra Mágina district, known for its charca, a historic water reservoir, and its terraced vegetable gardens. Its groves, on mid-mountain slopes, give olives of great character.
Melgarejo farms its Picual there organically, without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, caring for the grove and its surroundings.
In the kitchen with Melgarejo Picual
- Tomato salads, dressed when serving.
- Roast vegetables, with a drizzle on top.
- Toasted country bread.
- Salmorejo and cold soups.
- Pulses, as a finishing touch.
A slice of country bread with a drizzle of this Melgarejo Picual is enough to appreciate its complexity. Over roast vegetables or a tomato salad, its green fruitiness and apple note add freshness.
It also works very well in salmorejo or as a final touch to a plate of pulses, where its green freshness lifts the stew at once.
